Episode 2 – Tar Baby

SHOWNOTESSummary

This episode features briar patches, bunny rabbits, and bad decisions. We have stories about the color line in America, mastodons that can open doors, and a hole in the rug under the couch that you didn’t even know was there.

I spoke to Dr. Emily Lindsey from the La Brea Tar Pits and Museum. Visit them on the web to schedule your trip to the tar pits, experience paleontology firsthand, and learn more about mammoth cloning (well, maybe not that last part so much).
